** RACE presents Dr. Sonia Nieto, Tuesday April 8
Mission Statement
Researchers And Critical Educators (R.A.C.E.) is committed to bringing
its members together along the following mission:
Researchers And Critical Educators is an interdisciplinary organization
of faculty at California State University, Fullerton. We are united by
a common commitment and/or research interests to actively engage in intellectual
and applied scholarship and work in the areas of race, ethnicity, class,
culture, linguistic diversity and gender. This organization recognizes
the changing demographic profile of our societal landscape, and in order
to respond to this challenge, the Researchers And Critical Educators will
creatively support active research and its ensuing scholarship to significantly
contribute to this emerging body of academic work. To this end, Researchers
And Critical Educators will work with relevant college and university
offices to promote a university environment to support new research, advance
ongoing projects, and showcase high quality scholarship and professional
activities in this area.
As an organization, we pledge to work collaboratively with the CHDCS Dean's
office in order to achieve the following goals:
- To effectively represent and promote a college-wide climate that is
sensitive, representative, and fair to all untenured and tenured faculty.
- To build strong, effective, formal and regular voice, communication
and programmatic input to the Dean of the College of Human Development
and Community Service and with the relevant college committees;
- To develop and implement a variety of faculty support activities and
programs for untenured and tenured faculty in collaboration with the
Dean's office
- To provide support and input in the fair recruitment, hiring, retention
or promotion of untenured and tenured faculty.
- To build strong, effective linkages with the university administration,
faculty and the surrounding community at large
- To create a social support network to build partnerships and personal
friendships among the members of the organization
- To encourage and empower individuals in the organization to become
more actively involved in important university, community, professional,
and political service with the purpose of creating a more harmonious
and desired community.
